Itsallelectric.com is an invaluable site even if the only film you're ever hoping to make is from the Paris Hilton school of film making.

There's some great short movies to download, interviews with actors and directors, and a calendar of forthcoming events in the film world. For budding directors it's an invaluable source of support, and advice, as well as a showcase.

Right now the site's kicking off its first film competition with Launch Pad, a competition for films lasting a mere 30 seconds. There's also a London v New York throwdown to make the best 5 minute film in 24 hours.

So if you've ever harboured a secret ambition to
be the next Scorcese, now's the time to get that digital camera rolling, and start casting your mates as extras.

Deadline to enter Launchpad is August 31
24 hour film challenge takes place on July 4
